I agree. The brain is looking to replace that 'feel good' response that nicotine formerly provided.
Another possibility is that you are mistaking food cravings for nicotine triggers. A 'trigger' is a situation in which you would normally have had a cigarette. Common ones are driving, after eating, with your morning coffee, etc...
Here's something you can try to see if that may be the case; whenever you have a food craving, stop and analyze what you are doing and/or thinking at that moment. Is the situation one in which you would have previously lit up?
Just a thought...
